A little plan for play
Open interactive activity →Add to play journal →What you need
A full sheet of paper and large child-appropriate crayons.
Age: 3–5 years; choose for the individual child.
Let's make it happen
- Choose any letter together. Adult writes its uppercase and lowercase forms in large print, with a few other letters nearby.
- Point to the chosen uppercase form, then find its lowercase partner. Trace each with a finger or crayon.
- Think of a familiar word beginning with that letter and draw a picture of it. Choose another letter if your child wishes.
Adult stays beside the child and helps form and name letters without pressure.
